We loved the tenderness and messages in I Will Always Be Your Bunny: Love from the Velveteen Rabbit.  Although it is a simple and small picture book, the message is loud and clear.  The illustrations align beautifully with the story.  The rhyming is perfectly measured and executed. Children from around the globe are represented. A must have in every home and classroom!
